In a surprise move to even myself, today I am featuring this Johnson Bros. “Friendly Village” 5-Piece Place Setting at Macy’s.  I am not usually drawn to antiques or things which look old-fashioned, but something about this set just feels really special to me.  Obviously the price is special at just $9.99 for a 5-place setting.  That’s 80% off the usual $50 price.  Granted, I’d probably buy now at the rock bottom price and then store these away until late fall, but I think that these dishes have real charm and would make a meal feel quaint and memorable.  The wonderful scenes remind me of Currier & Ives idyllic settings.  Red barns flanked by an evergreen forest and wrapped in a fresh blanket of snow for good measure – I was instantly drawn in.  Each set includes a dinner plate, bread & butter plate, soup/cereal bowl, teacup and saucer.  The ratings are also great with a perfect 5 star score after 5 happy reviews.  And yes, your dishwasher is invited to the party.  This set is dishwasher safe.

Don’t quote me on this, but I think that this deal only lasts through the end of the day.

Cheers!

Jill
